ANKARA (AA) - The EU foreign policy chief arrived in Ukraine's capital for a visit on Tuesday, according to Ukrainian lawmaker Oleksiy Goncharenko.

"Josep Borrell has arrived in Kyiv," Goncharenko wrote on Telegram.

On Monday, visiting Poland's capital Warsaw, Borrell announced that the EU plans to sanction international companies that allegedly help Russia circumvent Western sanctions.

Russia launched its special military operation in Ukraine in February 2022. The West took Ukraine's side, imposed heavy sanctions on Russia, and has been providing unprecedented economic, humanitarian, and economic assistance to Kyiv ever since.

On Feb. 24, the conflict will enter its third year.
